We consider a nonlinear elliptic problem driven by the p-Laplacian plus and indefinite potential term. The reaction is (p - 1)-linear and resonant and the boundary term is concave. The problem is nonparametric. Using variational tools, together with truncation and perturbation techniques and critical groups, we show that the problem has at least three nontrivial smooth solutions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider a nonlinear boundary value problem driven by the (p, 2)- Laplacian, with a (p − 1)-superlinear reaction and a parametric concave boundary term (a "concave-convex" problem). Using variational tools (critical point theory) together with truncation and comparison techniques, we prove a bifurcation type theorem describing the changes in the set of positive solutions as the parameter λ > 0 varies. We also show that for every admissible parameter λ > 0, the problem has a minimal positive solution uλ and determine the monotonicity and continuity properties of the map λ 7→ uλ.
